How would you finish that statement today? Would it be tired, weary, confused, scared or disappointed? Go away ahead and answer it honestly. It’s just between you and the Father and no matter if your I am statement is positive or negative, He’s not intimidated by your I am(s).
Let all that I am wait quietly before God, for my hope is Him. Psalms 62:5 (NLT)
If I am weary
I am confused
I am sick
I am hurt
I am disappointed
I will not attempt to hide it but will bring it before Him.
Even if I am scornful
I am lustful
I am prideful
I am bound
That too will I bring to Him. Yes, it will wait with me. Why? Because He is our only hope for real strength, peace, healing, deliverance or lasting change.
The Lord already knows our heart but as we surrender it in honesty to Him, we allow Him to come in and work. Our burden is given to Him. What a relief!
It's been a while since I've been here. Used to see you at WFW at the Internet Cafe. Would love to have you stop by and visit me.
Blessings,

It's amazing how potent 2 small words can be. We can go to Him with our "i am" in the flesh, and He can remind us of His "I am". He can remind us of our "I am" that only comes through Him. Through Him, our "I am" becomes something altogether different, altogether lovely. I am a child of the most High God. I am royalty. I am a princess, daughter of the King of Kings. I am more than a conqueror. I am the head and not the tail. I am strong in the power of His might. I am persuaded. I am convinced. I am loved.
I am …learning to TRUST Him with ALL my heart!
I am alive and that's enough proof (if needed) that he has all of us in his thoughts.
Have a nice weekend.
I am all that I need to be in this moment because the "I AM" is in me, with me and ahead of me now and forever.
I am loved by the Lover of my soul.
I am always in awe of Him and His creations 🙂
Great thoughts, Wanda.
I am many things today – but mostly I am grateful that I am loved by the great I AM.
GOD BLESS!
Amen, amen! Our only hope…the only One…
I love these thoughtful words. It makes me think but I know He can handle these feelings….
Oh precious one from end of December to this moment I walked this, I am…
but I'm thankful that He is the Great I Am and therefore nothing I say or feel is a surprise to Him and He's my Anchor in it all.
Thanks for sharing through the pen of your heart; my heart thoughts.
Love you!
This is an awesome and truthful word!!! To God be the Glory!! Thanks for sharing and have a bless weekend!! =D
Hi Wanda,
Thanks for this wonderful post and the scripture from Psalm 62:5. It really spoke to me as I wait quietly before God and put my trust and hope in Him for a new job and much needed rest.
Blessings,

Thank you dear ones for sharing your thoughts. Regardless of where I am (or you are), the Great I AM is with us! And because He is there, hope and help is available for us. Wishing you a bless week.
Hi Wanda… I came over from Beth's blog, and so glad I did.
I am "Wanda" and I share your faith in Jesus Christ, and was blessed by your blog today.
Hello Wanda nice to meet my namesake and a woman after my own heart.
This is beautiful! It is such a great reminder of how He loves us, warts and all. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you Wanda for the reminder that I can take all that I am to the great I AM.
